The Milwaukee Bucks have the worst record in the NBA and they haven’t done much recently to improve on that. The Bucks are 1-9 in their last 10 games and 5-32 on the road this season. Brandon Knight leads Milwaukee averaging 17.6 points per game. Khris Middleton is averaging 11.8 points, O.J. Mayo is averaging 11.7 points, and John Henson is averaging 10.9 points and 7.3 rebounds. The Bucks are averaging 95.3 points and they are shooting 43.4 percent and 35.4 percent from beyond the three-point arc while defensively they are allowing 103.4 points and their opponents shoot 46.8 percent. Milwaukee should get immediate help in the NBA Draft.

Miami is 4-0 against the spread in their last four games, 7-3-1 against the spread in their last 11 home games, and 4-0 against the spread against the Eastern Conference. Milwaukee is 4-1 against the spread in their last five road games, 5-2 against the spread in their last seven games, and 18-37 against the spread against a team with a winning record. The road team has covered the point spread in four of the last five meetings of these two.

The Bucks have used the big numbers to cover in spots they have no chance at outright wins but they aren't so furtunate here as the Heat have too much riding on the last few games.
